[Solved] Horizontal Bullet Formatting

Post by GEFStryker »

Hey folks,

Was wondering if someone could clue me in as to how you would place bullets horizontally as well as vertically? Never had to ise that before, but I wanted to try something different on my resume.

Example:

Bullet text bullet text bullet text
Bullet text bullet text bullet text
Bullet text bullet text bullet text

Thanks!

Just insert a bullet character (Insert > Special Character). You can format them any way you want.

If you want things to line up in columns, you might want to use a table. If you do that, you can use the Writer bullets: each table cell is a separate paragraph.
